Polti Forzaspira Lecologico FAQs

What advantages does a vacuum cleaner with water filter offer?

The advantage that a vacuum cleaner with water filter offers over a traditional vacuum cleaner with a bag is that, precisely because it is bagless, you save money and there is less of an impact on the environment. Compared to bagless vacuum cleaners, you get the advantage of the fact that the dust is trapped by the water and so doesn’t get dispersed into the air when you empty the collector. In fact, water filters have an ability to “capture” and dissolve dust inside the collector. It does this by generating a special kind of water vortex that drives the dust towards the bottom of the tank and traps it inside it.

What can I vacuum with the Polti Forzaspira Lecologico?

The Polti Forzaspira Lecologico vacuums everything that other high-quality vacuum cleaners do: dust, rice, coffee, dirt, pet and human hair, crumbs, etc. It vacuums coarse and fine dirt such as fine dust, pollen and dust mites. It never loses power because the water vortex ensures the air flows do not get blocked. And where other vacuum cleaners falter, the Polti Forzaspira Lecologico continues to vacuum and collect the dirt that other appliances can't, such as wet waste, tomato sauce that ended up on the floor, a broken egg (shell included) and actual liquids, like milk, juice and soft drinks.

Where does all that vacuumed dirt go?

The dirt becomes trapped in the water filter. Thanks to our patented filtration system, the dirt can’t escape. That is why the Polti Forzaspira Lecologico also purifies the air while it vacuums.

What is a water filter?

A water filter is a real barrier against dust thanks to the vortex that is created by the inflow of air into the water via the vacuum tube. The water and its vortex captures dust during vacuuming and, more importantly, when it gets dirty, it can be easily disposed of.

What advantages does water filtration offer?

With water filtration, you no longer need to worry about annoying bag changes, no dust “escaping”, no proliferation of germs and bacteria inside the bag. All you have to do is rinse out the collector and the Polti Forzaspira Lecologico is instantly clean and ready to go again!

How do you clean the collector?

Once you’ve finished vacuuming, the collector can be removed in no time at all and emptied as though you were pouring water from a jug! We recommend putting the empty container back in its place and vacuuming up a litre of clean water by running the suction for a few seconds before putting the appliance away. After you empty the water filter again, you’ll have a perfectly clean vacuum cleaner, even its inner hoses.

What does Bioecologico do?

Bioecologico is a natural anti-foaming solution that is also an effective room deodoriser. Specially designed to be used in the water filter of the Polti Forzaspira Lecologico and the Polti Vaporetto Lecoaspira, Bioecologico prevents the formation of foam and eliminates unpleasant odours in the dirt collector, leaving a pleasant, clean scent in the room.

Does the Polti Forzaspira Lecologico purify the air?

The Polti Forzaspira Lecologico purifies the air as it vacuums. The filtration system includes a water filter and a HEPA 13 filter, which is so effective it traps even the smallest of impurities, leaving the air clean. The HEPA 13 filter is commonly used in professional applications where maximum hygiene is required, for example in hospitals.

Is the Polti Forzaspira Lecologico good at preventing allergies?

Is the Polti Forzaspira Lecologico suitable for vacuuming delicate floors too?
